" protecting all the electronics in my house with a single surge protector?" That's going to be a lot of extension cords

funny insightful woo!

..or .. here's a novel idea ... maybe, just maybe people could EAT LESS! but of good quality food. Maybe it's not necessary to stuff our belies to the point of bursting 3 times a day with less nutrient rich burgers / fries / whatever else preservative full, genetically warped, crap food. And eat to 60% full of nutrient rich great food. Maybe people can even stop wasting there yards with grass and oversized bushes and plan some of there own vegetables. If something like this was adopted as general thought on a large scale it would have far greater impact that needed to further the path of freak food.

The more dualistic any philosophical system is, the further it should be stayed away from. Dualism creates separation => for something to be RIGHT something else has to be WRONG the deeper the dualism, the deeper the RIGHT needs to destroy the WRONG! but what has become the WRONG! So disheartening to read about these types of acts. How would anyone know what white is without a black to compare it to? It is an impossibility! Therefor one should not try to dwell in black or white, because night turns into day day turns into night. The two are mutually dependent. One cannot exist without the other, so why try to put one above the other. Remain constant and aware in all circumstances, love without any exception, bias, exclusion, INCLUSION, attachment. .... ok, ok my little rant for the day is done

Good indeed

yup, hope the kid gets a good job out of it!

Good. I hope no one can ever use 1st, 2nd, 3rd .... n generation of there GM franken-soybeans. Leave my food alone, thank you very much.

good luck Canada!

"Perhaps more importantly: the police aren't military." Well said. And military's primary purpose should be to defend against Foreign (and only foreign) invasion - unless the internal police are completely unable to defend public peace and the military's action isn't unconstitutional). So there should be no instance for public video taping military action because that action should never occur within our own borders unless there is a foreign (non US citizens) army inside our borders. If military are arresting US citizens then we should have right to video tape that as well.

Stay away from our food! My rice is fine the way it is thanks

general note - There was a Chan master that died in 1959, named Xu Yun that lived until 119

"Researchers also found that while sleep and sex may be stronger urges than certain drug addictions" Thank you researchers! After 10000+ years of existence we finally know physical necessities (unless one takes up monasticism) could be stronger urges than drugs ! That's extremely fascinating! With enough funding advanced research should finally be able to prove comsuming water and breathing to be even more addictive than sleeping and sex! The FDA should work closely with deep pocket pharmaceuticals to provide humanity with pills to end these ailments. I'm off to ponder this amazing achievement

one small step backwards for man (being that corporations can now be considered people), one giant leap backwards for mankind (followed by a tumble down a large mountain into a ravine full of quicksand)

(notable exclusions include Germany, the Netherlands, Estonia, Cyprus and Slovakia) Sweden is not on the list of countries that don't support? Seems strange .. but what do I know, I'm not from Europe

Agreed. I'll wait until 2.0 and give it chance. I really enjoyed the depth and community of FFXI and hope they can pull it off again, and so does my Tarutaru
